like home when I visit Kenwood Kindergarten.’
- Menaka Soni currently studying Optometry in Cardiff University says; “The most profound memory I have of Kenwood Kindergarten is that my teachers always made me feel special, which is a very important feeling for young children. I used to be excited to go to school every day and my mum said I never cried! The school used to encourage me to read books and I think this is where my love of reading stems from. I also remember eating school lunches as a family of students, teachers and assistants and I truly believe my Kenwood Kindergarten days are some of the best days of my life!”
